Maxine on "The Perfect Man" "All I'm looking for is a guy who'll do what I want, when I want, for as long as I want, and then go away. Or wait nearby, like a Dust Buster, charged up and ready when needed."
Maxine on "Technology Revolution" "My idea of rebooting is kicking somebody in the butt twice."

Love always creates, it never destroys. In this lie's man's only promise

As far as I know, she's just known as Maxine the feisty old lady cartoon.

"Maxine, that crabby character from Hallmark, came to life in 1986 when she appeared on several Shoebox cards the year the alternative card line was launched," reveals the greetings and gifts company."John Wagner, Hallmark artist since 1970, says Maxine was inspired by his mother, his maiden aunts and his grandmother, the woman who bought him art lessons ... 'If Maxine can get a laugh out of someone who feels lonely or someone who is getting older and hates the thought of another birthday, or if she can make someone chuckle about stressful interpersonal relationships, then I'm happy. Putting a smile on someone's face is what it's all about.'" Maxine at Hallmark:
The cranky lady offers wit and snarkiness with free greeting cards to be sent via email for numerous occasions. Gift items with Maxine's presence are available, too.
And don't miss Maxine's daily Crabby Road comic strip on view at Hallmark's Maxine.com. Today's tongue lashing and past swift boots to the pants are sitting quietly in the corner of a generous Crabby Road cartoon archive.
Great find, LovingSpirit; I didn't have much luck with what I found so I gave up.

I know I'm taking away from the topic somewhat; I like Nancy Grace when I've seen her on "Dr. Phil" and admire the way she speaks about abuse and such.
I believe Nancy Grace has her own show but we don't get it on our basic cable.

Maxine is SO popular that I get something in email that she says almost everyday.

'OLD' IS WHEN...
You are cautioned to slow down by the doctor instead of by the police .
